NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Interim condensed financial statements are prepared pursuant to the requirements
for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles are omitted. For additional disclosures, see the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Universal Automotive Industries,
Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.
Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements contained in Universal Automotive Industries, Inc. Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. The application of
these policies may require management to make judgments and estimates about the
amounts reflected in the financial statements. Management uses historical
experience and all available information to make these estimates and judgments,
and different amounts could be reported using different assumptions and
estimates.
In the opinion of our management, all adjustments, consisting solely of normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial
statements for these interim periods have been included. The current period's
results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results which ultimately
may be achieved for the year.
Certain reclassifications have been made for the period presented in the
financial statements to conform to the classifications presented in 2003.

3. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Net Loss Per Share
Warrants and options issued by us are only included in the computation of
weighted average number of shares where their inclusion is not anti-dilutive.
For the six months ended June 30, 2003, common stock equivalents are not
included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding in determining net
loss per share.
Income Taxes
For the quarters ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, no provision for income taxes has
been provided. We believe that, consistent with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States, it was not more likely than not that the tax
benefits associated with the balance of loss carryforwards and other deferred
tax assets will be realized through future taxable earnings or alternative tax
strategies. Accordingly, net deferred tax assets were offset with a valuation
allowance.
6
4. LASALLE INDEBTEDNESS
The LaSalle Credit Agreement contains certain limitations on dividends and
capital expenditures and requires us to satisfy certain financial tests
concerning defined minimum tangible net worth and debt service coverage. At June
30, 2003, we were in compliance with all financial covenants.
5. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") NO. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and
Disclosure, which (i) amends SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation to add two new transitional approaches when changing from
Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued
to Employees intrinsic value method of accounting for stock-based employee
compensation to the SFAS No. 123 fair value method and (ii) amends ABO Opinion
No. 28 Interim Financial Reporting to call for disclosure of SFAS No. 123
pro-forma information on a quarterly basis. We have elected to adopt the
disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 148 and will continue to follow ABO
Opinion No. 25 and the related interpretations in accounting for the stock
options granted to our employees and directors. Accordingly, employee and
director compensation expense is recognized only for those options whose price
is less than fair market value at the measurement date.
6. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
We have elected to follow APB Opinion NO. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, and related interpretations in accounting for the stock options
granted to employees and directors. Accordingly, employee and director
compensation expense is recognized only for those options whose price is less
than fair market value at the measurement date. We have adopted the
disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation, as amended.
Had the compensation cost for our stock options plans been determined in
accordance with SFAS No. 123, our reported earnings per share for the three
month periods ending June 30, 2003 and 2002, would differ by less than $.01 per
share from that which would have been recorded using the Black-Scholes option
valuation method.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS(1)
GENERAL
We are a manufacturer and distributor of brake rotors, drums, disc brake
pads, relined brake shoes, non-asbestos friction lining and a complete line of
hydraulic parts. We believe that we are the leading supplier of "value line"
brake parts (brake parts sold at prices below those of certain leading national
brand name brake parts) to mass-market retailers, traditional warehouse
distributors and specialty undercar distributors in North America.(1)
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended June 30, 2003 Compared To Three Months Ended June 30, 2002
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2003 decreased $2,585,748 or 12.7%
under the same quarter in 2002 to $17,838,657. The decreased sales were a result
of a temporary disruption in the supply-chain for products imported from China
coupled with a general slow-down in economic activity, partially offset by
increases in commodity sales of non-brake part products.
Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2003 is $2,635,454 or 14.8% of
net sales compared to $3,999,779 or 19.6% in the same period of 2002, a decrease
of $1,364,325 or 34.1%. Reduced gross margins on the lower sales volume and the
under absorption of fixed overhead at the friction manufacturing facilities due
to reduced production levels were partially offset by cost containment and
reduction initiatives.
Selling, general and administrative expenses of $2,374,812 (13.3% of net sales)
for the three months ended June 30, 2003 decreased by $718,978 when compared to
$3,093,790 (15.1% of net sales) for the same period in 2002. The 23.2% reduction
was a result of reduced freight and commission costs on the lower sales levels,
cost containment and reduction initiatives and the absence of a $174,900 charge
to income incurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2002 resulting from the
cancellation of a strategic supply agreement with Creative Friction LLC.
Total other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2003 decreased $143,205
to $245,559 from $388,764 for the same period of 2002. Of this total, interest
expense decreased $154,168 from the same period in 2002 due to lower borrowing
levels on the revolving line of credit coupled with lower interest rates.
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was $15,083 compared to net
income of $517,225 for the same period in 2002. The decrease in net income is
attributed to reduced margins on lower sales and under absorption of
manufacturing costs due to reduced production levels offset by lower selling,
general and administrative expenses and reduced interest expense.
- --------
(1) Some of the statements included in Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations, may be considered to be "forward
looking statements" since such statements relate to matters which have not yet
occurred. For example, phrases such as "we anticipate," believe" or "expect"
indicate that it is possible that the event anticipated, believed or expected
may not occur. Should such event not occur, then the result, which we expected,
also may not occur or may occur in a different manner, which may be more or less
favorable to us. We do not undertake any obligation to publicly release the
result of any revisions to these forward looking statements that may be made to
reflect any future event or circumstances.
8
Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 Compared To Six Months Ended June 30, 2002
Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 decreased $5,213,155 or 13.7%
under the same period in 2002 to $32,855,567. The decreased sales were a result
of a temporary disruption in the supply-chain for products imported from China
coupled with a general slow-down in economic activity partially offset by
increases in commodity sales of non-brake part products.
Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2003 is $4,383,593 or 13.3% of
net sales compared to $7,215,893 or 19.0% in the same period of 2002, a decrease
of $2,832,300 or 39.3%. Reduced gross margins on the lower sales volume and the
under absorption of fixed overhead at the friction manufacturing facilities due
to reduced production levels were partially offset by cost containment and
reduction initiatives.
Selling, general and administrative expenses of $4,866,374 (14.8% of net sales)
for the six months ended June 30, 2003 decreased by $926,140 when compared to
$5,792,514 (15.2% of net sales) for the same period in 2002. The 16.0% reduction
was a result of reduced freight and commission costs on the lower sales levels,
cost containment and reduction initiatives and the absence of a $174,900 charge
to income incurred during the prior period resulting from the cancellation of a
strategic supply agreement with Creative Friction LLC.
Total Other Expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 decreased $277,637 to
$476,606 from $754,243 for the same period of 2002. Of this total, interest
expense decreased $266,155 from the same period in 2002 due to lower borrowing
levels on the revolving line of credit coupled with lower interest rates.
Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was $959,387 compared to net
income of $669,136 for the same period in 2002. The decrease in net income is
attributed to reduced margins on lower sales and under absorption of
manufacturing costs due to reduced production levels offset by lower selling,
general and administrative expenses and reduced interest expense.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net cash provided in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2003
was $568,244 which was primarily due to (a) a reduction in inventories of
$3,558,169 and (b) non-cash items consisting of depreciation and amortization of
$572,464, offset by (c) the net loss for the period of $959,387, (d) an increase
in net accounts receivable of $2,457,931, (e) increase in accrued expenses of
$106,415, (f) a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of
$239,125 and (g) a decrease in accounts payable of $12,361.
Net cash used in investing activities was $157,514 which is attributable
primarily to leasehold improvements incurred in connection with the relocation
of the rotor manufacturing from Cuba, MO into our Alsip, IL facility.
Net cash used by financing activities was $629,515, consisting primarily of
reductions in borrowings under our line of credit agreement of $410,198 and
scheduled payments under term note and subordinated debt of $219,317.
We expect to continue to finance our operations through cash flow generated from
operations, borrowings under our bank lines of credit and obtaining credit from
our suppliers, and possibly additional unsecured lines of credit.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2002. The application of these policies may require
management to make judgments and estimates about the amounts reflected in the
financial statements. Management uses historical experience and all available
information to make these estimates and judgments, and different amounts could
be reported using different assumptions and estimates.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") NO. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and
Disclosure, which (i) amends SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation to add two new transitional approaches when changing from
Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued
to Employees intrinsic value method of accounting for stock-based employee
compensation to the SFAS No. 123 fair value method and (ii) amends ABO Opinion
No. 28 Interim Financial Reporting to call for disclosure of SFAS No. 123
pro-forma information on a quarterly basis. We have elected to adopt the
disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 148 and will continue to follow ABO
Opinion No. 25 and the related interpretations in accounting for the stock
options granted to its employees and directors. Accordingly, employee and
director compensation expense is recognized only for those options whose price
is less than fair market value at the measurement date.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
We believe that we do not have significant exposure to market risk associated
with derivative financial instruments, other financial instruments, or
derivative commodity instruments. We previously utilized only limited derivative
financial instruments and did not use them for trading purposes and have never
used derivative commodity instruments. At June 30, 2003, there were no such
derivative instruments. The fair value of financial instruments, other than debt
instruments, closely approximates their carrying value. Because the interest
rate of the revolving loan and the term loan with LaSalle National Bank adjusts
with the changes in the market rate of interest, we believe that the fair value
is equivalent to the carrying value.
We believe the interest rate of seven percent (7.0%) on the subordinated
debenture is approximately equal to the current rate available for similar debt.
Accordingly, the fair value of this debenture approximates its carrying value.
10
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
We maintain a system of controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable
assurance as to the material reliability of the financial statements and other
disclosures included in this report as well as to safeguard assets from
unauthorized use or disposition. However, no cost effective systems of internal
controls will preclude all errors and irregularities, and management is
necessarily required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit
relationship of possible controls and procedures.
We evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure
controls and procedures under the supervision and with the participation of
management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer,
within 90 days prior to the filing date of the this report. Based upon that
evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded
that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting
them to material information required to be included in our periodic Securities
and Exchange Commission filings. No significant changes were made to our systems
of internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect these
disclosure controls and procedures subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
